Back Soon! (Plus Fancy New Widget Action)

Hello, my lovely readers! As I mentioned yesterday, I've been a bit under the weather as of late. I'm also behind on everything blog-related. (Taking pictures, videotaping tutorials, etc.) Plus I had a bad day at work! Can you believe it? Anyway, I wanted to let you know that I will be taking a little blog vacation, but plan to be back (refreshed!) in a couple days.

Oh, also! Have you seen my new Google Reader widget on my sidebar? It's on the righthand side under my blogroll, labeled "Gertie, Girl Reporter." I love this new widget so much it hurts. Every time I see something in my Google Reader that I think you guys might like, I just click "share" and it pops up there for you all to see! Isn't that genius? So if you're looking for some good reading, make sure to check it out. I update it every gosh darn day!

Until next time . . . happy sewing!

P.S. The above picture is my all-time favorite shot of Henry. (I actually have it screen printed on a t-shirt. Yes, you read that right.) Isn't it hilarious? I think it's very LOLcat worthy.

hoping you feel reinvigorated soon. I'm sure I'm not the only reader who is amazed at both the quality and regularity of your posts. Come back when you're ready xxx (ps if you ever need a cat sitter....)

I'm sorry to hear you're under the weather! Gertie, I love your blog. I've been carefully reading and watching the coat-focused efforts and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your thoughtful, charming comments and examples. I may actually make a coat myself this year. Having watched you doing it step by step makes it seem so much less intimidating.

I love to hear that you have a screen printed shirt of this photo! I hope you get to feeling more "in tune" (yes, I'm a dorky musician) soon! Mini vacations are the best medicine for that. I await with baited breath your peter pan collar tutorial!

Aw... So sorry you had a bad day! :( Crummy days + feeling like you're drowning under a pile of "to-do's" always stinks, imho. :p But, a break is always just the thing! Hope you enjoy your blogging break and come back rested and refreshed! :)

Hope you're having a nice break! Like a few of my fellow commentors, I've been amazed at the quantity and quality of your posts! Taking a break from everything is sometimes the only way to go. I'm having a small vacation from life today - not seeing anyone and only doing things that are for me, like baking, sewing and then I plan to see my favorite english tv-detective =)

Hello Gertie! Your blog is so cute! Im loving every piece you sew :) its great to see talented people like you showing their crafts, it inspires me yes!check out my blog if you wish www.dreieck.blog.com

He's so cute! I used to have a cat almost exactly like him. His eyes were very very green. I'm not sure if Henry's eyes are the exact same colour, but I do get teary everytime you post a picture of him.
